Abstract

In this work, we analyze a discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for the equations of motion that arise in the 2D Oldroyd model of order one. We investigate the existence and uniqueness of semidiscrete discontinuous solutions, as well as the consistency of the scheme. We derive new a priori and regularity results for the discrete solution and establish optimal error estimates in ‐norm in time and energy norm in space for the velocity and ‐norm in both time and space for the pressure. Uniform estimates are derived for sufficiently small data. We next apply the backward Euler method to the semidiscrete formulation and establish optimal fully discrete error estimates. At the end, we conduct numerical experiments to support our theoretical results and analyze the findings.
